Re: Discover and Amex

The green one. I believe tat is the standard one. AMEX preferred reward green card. Is tat a good card btw anyone know lol.. Its say it wavied the first annual fee (95 dollar) and give point. Anyone ever have problem with them?

You won't have a limit, then. Green, Gold, Platinum, Black, and Zync from American Express are all charge cards, thus, they do not have a "pre-set" spending limit.

They do have an "exposure limit," however, which is essentially their limit. They won't officially tell you what it is, however. You can call in and ask if a charge of x amount would be approved, however.

And I haven't had any issues with American Express. I've been very happy with their service, thus far.
